Search Again: Re: zone transfer OK, but SOA query not ! From: Men & Mice Support Date: Monday, October 1, 2001 Time: 5:37:33 am The first thing that comes to mind is, do they have the right master server IP address in their server's configuration for the zone? I'm able to get the serial number for your zone just fine from every server listed in the zone's NS records except for down.spin.it. If the server they're talking to you about is, for example, up.spin.it, and if up.spin.it looks to down.spin.it as the master server, that would explain the problem. If, instead, they're talking about down.spin.it, it seems to be having trouble parsing its local copy of the zone. (I say that because it refuses to answer queries about your zone, but it answers queries about spin.it just fine.) If this is the case, maybe they should clear their cached version of the zone, check over the slave configuration for the zone, and try again. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton Men & Mice cbuxton@menandmice.com We Make DNS Easy!
